NumListen number practice
Practice 15 vs 50 and 13 vs 30 in English
A focused listening-and-input practice page for English -teen and -ty number pairs.
NumListen number practice
Hear the ending, then enter the digits
Pairs such as fifteen and fifty or thirteen and thirty can sound close when they arrive in normal speech. This page keeps the task narrow: hear a safe sample number, type the digits, check the feedback, and replay or show the answer if needed. It does not diagnose pronunciation or replace a full pronunciation course.
Examples to practice
These examples use safe sample numbers so the page never asks for real phone numbers, payment details, or verification codes.
| Situation | Spoken example | Typed answer | What to notice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Teen ending | fifteen | 15 | Listen for the teen ending. |
| Ty ending | fifty | 50 | The stress pattern changes. |
| Pair contrast | thirteen, thirty | 13, 30 | Practice pairs together. |
Practice teen-versus-ty pairs
01
Choose one contrast
Start with a pair such as fifteen and fifty, then compare another pair such as thirteen and thirty.
02
Listen before reading
Hear the sample number first so you are responding to the spoken ending, not a written word.
03
Type the digits
Enter 15, 50, 13, or 30 directly and use the feedback to check the choice.
04
Replay and repeat
Replay or show the answer when needed, then continue with another short pair.
